Hi
I have a query about RedHat's Errata site.
For each erratum there are typically several architectures listed
and several files within each architecture. I am running an i686
machine (as reported by uname -a), so to update glibc I downloaded
glibc-2.2.4-19.3.i686.rpm
which was the only file listed for the i686 architecture. But running
rpm -Fvh glibc-2.2.4-19.3.i686.rpm
produced
error: failed dependencies:
glibc-common = 2.2.4-19.3 is needed by glibc-2.2.4-19.3
Do I complain to RedHat?
Do I download glibc-common-2.2.4-19.3.i386.rpm from the i386 section?
Do I download all packages (namely glibc glibc-common glibc-devel
glibc-profile nscd) listed under the i386 section and run
rpm -Fvh *.rpm?
I wouldn't worry about experimenting, except that glibc is rather
vital!
